What is recorded here
Magic and mystery surround Magheraboy. The hidden passage may still breathe beneath the cashel, waiting for someone brave enough to listen for its shape in the dirt.
Located in a cashel (MA074-009----). There is a local tradition of a Man-made underground passage in the interior of the cashel. A shallow depression, defined on the S side by a slight N-facing scarp, is evident in the NE quadrant. This may be surface subsidence above a subterranean passage, however, there is no definitive evidence to confirm this. The exact location of the Man-made underground passage remains unknown.
